SUMMARY:Hesiod's Body Sublime: Metabolic Aesthetics in...
DESCRIPTION:The archaic Greek poet\, Hesiod\, gives us bodies. Godly bodi
 es that consume other gods. Mortal bodies that digest godly gifts. Bodie
 s that amaze\, disgust\, and turn breath into poetry. This talk interrog
 ates the bodies of the Hesiodic corpus especially for their metabolic ca
 pacities and how metabolism defines political and poetic success. Speake
 r Bio: Stephen A. Sansom is an assistant professor in the Department of 
 Classics at Florida State University. His research investigates Greek ep
 ic poetry from literary\, computational and comparativist perspectives. 
 His first monograph project\, The Hesiodic Shield of Heracles and the Ae
 sthetics of Olympus (under review) situates the Shield of Heracles in th
 e politicized aesthetics of Hesiod’s cosmos. His second book project\, P
 atterns of Expectancy in Greek Epic\, uses data science and close readin
 g to explore the meanings generated by the metrical position of words ov
 er the thousand-year history of Greek hexameter poetry. His work has bee
 n supported by fellowships from the N.E.H.\, Harvard University’s C.H.S.
  (Washington\, D.C.)\, and the American School of Classical Studies at A
 thens. He currently serves on the Advisory Board of the new FSU Humaniti
 es Center\, which seeks to promote and advance the humanities through fe
 llowships\, conferences\, and conversation. Hosted by: Center for Hellen
 ic Studies Program\n\nTickets: https://calendar.ucsd.edu/event/hesiods-b
